Fundamental questions about crtmpserver

1. What is crtmpserver?

crtmpserver it is a high performance streaming server able to stream (live or recorded) in the following technologies:

• To and from Flash (RTMP,RTMPE, RTMPS, RTMPT, RTMPTE)
• To and from embedded devices: iPhone, Android
• From surveillance cameras
• IP-TV using MPEG-TS and RTSP/RTCP/RTP protocols

Also, crtmpserver can be used as a high performance rendes-vous server. For example, it enables you to do:

• Audio/Video conferencing
• Online gaming
• Online collaboration
• Simple/complex chat applications

2. What do I need to run crtmpserver?

Architectures supported: x86, amd64, PPC, ARM, MIPS

You need a main-stream operating system like:

• BSD-like system: FreeBSD or Mac OS X
• Any linux-based distribution
• Solaris
• Android
• uCLinux (for embedded devices)

3. How is this project different from others?

• It knows how to bridge many main-stream technologies (Adobe flash, Apple streaming, Silverlight, etc)
• High performance, which enables handling thousands of simultaneous connections.
• Light on resource usage
• Is native. That means you don't have to run it inside a "virtual machine": java, .NET, etc
• Highly portable. Where GCC goes, crtmpserver will definitely run: IP cameras, Android, ARM or MIPS based systems, SoC, etc
• Minimal dependencies: lua and openssl

4. How is this going to help me?

• As the motto in the page headers states, is "bridging" technologies. Thus, less work for you for porting existing media content from one technology to another
